He is also showing symptoms of the dementia that killed his father, a disorder that is both irreversible and incurable.

I can see just how shaky my parents faith truly is because of the hold Trump has on them. They have been more than willing to compromise their morals, ethics, principles, spirituality, integrity, character, and voluntary hypocrisy in order to exalt this Man and validate and justify his every transgression in order to paint him as this perfect, sinless, Savior who walks on water. He could literally shoot someone and my family will excuse it. They give him money. They cry over him. I'm just standing there in shock, with insulted intelligence, as I watch helplessly as he takes them down with him. I don't know my family anymore. I have nothing in common with them. My Mom will look my gay cousin and I, her daughter, in the eyes... tell us she loves us.. then vote against our safety, autonomy, and human rights.

Although I am not technically a Christian, I do see Jesus as the ideal. I realized as I watched this video that, much as I loathe Trump, I need to forgive him for all the harm he has caused, both to our nation and the world. I suspect that he truly does not understand what he's done; that perhaps he is incapable of doing so. I still hope he is convicted and sentenced, but I see that as a necessity to keep him from doing further harm, and to discourage others from following in his footsteps. I'm still going to have to fight to keep from hating him, but that is my goal. Thank you, Rev. Ed. You've brightened my day, in more ways than one.

At this point it's longer but I'm going to take the middle part and listen. In the storms of life is where a man is truly made or souls are being perfected restored and saved I will wait on you o Lord and know that you are near I won't trust in what I see ahead or even what I hear I hear you're still small voice telling me to be calm to rest assured in your peace and be still. 🙏 And I use that as like a really good sign I think it's pretty true. But thank you for being here and all the other pastors David Gushee, Stan Mitchell and there's so many more. Remember and Reverend John Shelby Spong. That man saved my life his debates over homosexuality save my life and Matthew Vines Thank you Ed though You've been here too And if I find Jesus I'm going to tell him all about these guys that were here for us the outcasts in the desert times. God bless you 🙏😇

I once posted a comment, might have been on this site, don't recall, in which I stated, "it is perfectly possible to live a faithful and moral Christian life without ever reading the Old Testament. The blowback from that statement was insane!

The Old Testament? That's possible without ever reading the Bible and that is supported by scripture. Romans 2:14

@@toreyhorton1789 Romans 2:15, "They show that what the law requires is written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness...", Sad state of affairs, I am a Buddhist and I understand the scripture more than this cult that worships Trump. Because the basis of Buddhism is that your desire is the issue... As Rev Ed states in this video when Jesus said, " forgive them they know not what they do", that was not his desire speaking, it was the will of God.

Amen🙏🙏🙏💙💙💙

Thank you Reverend. 💙 Peace be with you.

That’s exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you. Sent an email to you yesterday about how I was feeling. That video helped a ton. God bless you.

There's a lot of name-calling on both sides, but throwing away an entire group of people is lowest of all, no matter who says it or why. It's also scary, because it's the first step in dehumanizing those whom you wish to harm, and that's almost certainly not lost on his followers.

The one thing you can count on with frump is that every nasty word that he speaks or types describes himself to a tee!

Rev Ed, you are a shinning light ….thank you for making us remember our words and how we use them. I find it impossible to believe these so called Christians who support trump are following Christ’s teachings. But then I think even trump is allowed Amazing Grace.

May the Peace of the Lord be with you...

Let’s subscribe and get more and more to here this guy!! He’s preaching God’s truth! My he be richly blessed for what he’s showing and using Christ’s teachings.

I love you, Rev. Ed. I can always count on you for a healthy dose of Christianity in these dark times.

Amen!

I’m Catholic but I greatly appreciate your messages. Keep up the good work v

Wonderful Message.

Thank you Rev Ed. This is one of the teachings that has always resonated with me, and still does. Whenever I come across vexatious people that is what comes to mind, "Forgive them father, they know not what they do". Their words and negative energy can bring our positivity down. But understanding they know not what they do allows us to be kinder.

I have Trump fatigue.

Amen brother!🙏

Amen!❤

Thank you my brother!!!

Your Words through God have helped this morning
